One of my clients brought me dying phalaenopsis orchid hoping that I would be able to rescue it. I was really happy to help.Three days later orchid came back to life.
This is what I did:
1) Remove all the dead, dried and damaged roots leaving as many healthy roots as possible.
2) Changed the substrate. For the new substrate I used sphagnum moss.
3) Fully submerged orchid in hot 50°C or 110°F water and ensured that the moss absorbs all the water and the heat.
4) Drained all the excess water out to avoid over hydration.
5) Put the orchid in a clear plastic bag.This would create a high humidity around the leaves and roots.
5) Placed it on a sunny and warm windowsill for three days.
6) Removed the plastic bag. The orchid looked nice, thick and healthy. Roots almost doubled in volume. Almost dead orchid was revived.
7) Continued to take normal care of the orchid.
